Dumb

There’s planet, tiny and blue

Cruising our galaxy

With air to breathe, water and food,

For life to prosper peacefully

On top of the food chain

Mankind in its glory

The pride of creation, a smart brain

With untamed imagination

Everything’s hunky-dory

But we overlook carelessly

That human spawn is sawing off

The bough it is sitting on

We are selfish and numb

Push our wealth to the max

Witless, stupid and dumb

But the thin ice shows cracks

Our hands are covered with blood

We shoot other’s wad

Can we abide this facade?

We are black, white, a motley crew

Different cultures and views

But all of us truly despise

Being governed by devils in disguise

Cold-blooded we keep profiting

It’s impossible to withstand

Until we all loose everything

As the system ‘s getting out of hand

But we imperturbably

Bark up the wrong tree

The only thing of value

Is increasing our revenue

Growing figures and numbers

The cash flow never slumbers

To alter our course is not that hard

We hold each and every card

Show respect for nature

Our planet and all creatures
